Instagram is, without a doubt, the most popular social media platform in the entire world, and it has been for several years now. It is a platform that has attracted hundreds of millions of users and is adored by all! It allows you, if you are unaware, to post photographs with comments, stories, and communicate with people directly through a chat function known as direct messaging (‘DMing’). Getting followers on Instagram, if you are a user, however, can be very difficult.

 

Well, not to worry, in our article today, we are going to hopefully explain to you a few ways that you can get more organic followers on Instagram. Let us first differentiate between organic and non-organic followers, for those who are not knowledgeable about social media terminology! Organic followers are followers that you have gotten without any third-party interference (such as bots, etc), whereas un-organic followers are exactly the opposite, and are usually achieved through services like bots.

 

Well, here are four crafty tricks to get more organic followers on Instagram, so you never need to rely on bots again!

 

1. Harvest Followers

 

Harvesting followers is without a doubt one of the most popular (and effective) methods of getting more organic followers on Instagram. Essentially, for one to harvest followers, one must go through a list of Instagram users and follow every single person that they see. You may end up following thousands of people doing this. Well, the trick is to set your profile to private and to set your display picture as somebody that attracts interest. You will then find that your account gets about half of those that you have followed. This is a very effective method of organically sourcing followers.

 

If you have the time and the patience (and the finger strength) for doing this then you will find that it is a very effective method of becoming an Instagram celebrity. Many people have done this and have found great success in it. It can be very time consuming and can seem quite boring at times, but we assure you that it is the most effective method of acquiring organic followers without having to resort to plots or schemes, such as giveaways, or anything like that.

 

2. Cross-Platform Linking

 

Cross-platform linking is another very popular way of getting more followers on social media. You may wonder what is linkinbio (which is what this tactic is called), and how to use it. Essentially, you put your links for other social media accounts in all of your bio, therefore linking all of your accounts together. This means that if you are more popular on one platform than on another, that people will be able to follow you on all of them, therefore meaning your follower-base is transferred from one platform to another, giving you an inflated follower-base on all of the platforms that you use.

 

Cross-platform linking is a very effective method of increasing your followers on social media, but will only work if you have more followers on one platform than you do on another. We do recommend that you give cross-linking a look if you want organic followers.

 

3. Giveaways

 

If you want to get fast followers on social media, then giveaways can work. It is technically organic, though it is a bit of a cheap method of getting followers. If you share your profile over time offering giveaways, you will accrue a lot of followers, we assure you. When you have the desired amount of followers, the trick is to deactivate your profile for a little while so that nobody can unfollow you. When you reactivate, change your name and add photos of you, therefore changing your platform from an e-commerce account to a private social media account. Your followers will likely never realize that you were a giveaway page and will continue to follow you.

 

4. Sharing

 

Another way, a very popular way, for you to get followers on Instagram is through account sharing. Have your followers share your account on their stories, and you share theirs. That way, you exchange followers. Your followers will follow them, and their followers will follow you. This is a good way for you to get followers on social media. It is tried and tested and has been a popular method ever since Facebook. Sharing your followers is definitely a good way for you to get followers.
